The leading community of energy professionals, Energy Club, announces the holding of an important international event – the Forum “Recovery and Investments in the Energy Sector of Ukraine”. The Forum will be held on July 11, 2025 in the capital of Italy, Rome, at the Baglioni Regina Hotel.
The goal of the Forum is to create an effective platform for dialogue and fruitful cooperation between Ukrainian and international partners. The event is designed to demonstrate political support, provide an opportunity to discuss key aspects of the recovery and development of the Ukrainian energy sector, as well as present specific investment opportunities to attract strategic partners and investments.
The target audience of the Forum includes representatives of the energy business from Italy, Ukraine and other European countries, potential and existing investors, representatives of financial institutions, government officials and international organizations interested in the reconstruction of the Ukrainian energy sector.
"Our goal is ambitious, yet realistic: to attract direct investment for the recovery and modernization of Ukraine’s energy sector. We don’t want to simply patch up the damage. Our mission is to build a new, resilient energy system that is deeply integrated into the European market. That’s why the forum’s program focuses on two key areas. The first is immediate needs. During the “Recovery of the Energy Sector” panel, we will focus on preparations for the upcoming winter, the protection of infrastructure, and the financial instruments currently available to investors. We’ve already proven our ability to operate under extreme conditions. For example, in the summer of 2024, Ukrenergo crews replaced an autotransformer in a record 21 days — a task that typically takes 3–4 months in Europe. This is the best proof of our resilience and capacity for action. The second area is forward-looking. The “Green Transition, Innovation, and EU Integration” panel is dedicated to long-term opportunities. We see enormous potential in clean energy, renewables, biomethane, hydrogen, and smart technologies. Incidentally, before the full-scale invasion, Ukraine demonstrated impressive growth in green energy: installed renewable energy capacity increased nearly tenfold over six years — from 997 MW in 2016 to 9,516 MW at the start of 2022. Our aim is not just to restore this potential, but to multiply it," said President of the Energy Club, Andriy Kostrytsia.
The Forum program is currently being actively formed and will be rich in expert discussions, presentations of investment projects and opportunities for networking. The forum will present a balanced view of the challenges and prospects of the Ukrainian energy sector, including panel discussions on recovery priorities, urgent investments, green transition, innovation and EU integration. The working language of the event is English (without translation).
The Forum is provided with information support by leading industry associations: the Association of Gas Traders of Ukraine, the Association of Subsoil Users of Ukraine, the Association of Solar Energy of Ukraine, the Ukrainian Wind Energy Association and the Association of Gas Extracting Companies of Ukraine.
